Full textAbstract:
Cette étude analyse les facteurs de développement et d'assimilation de la minorité linguistique francophone du Manitoba à travers le prisme des représentations discursives des locuteurs recueillies lors d'enquêtes de type qualitatif et a pour objectif d'examiner comment les faits (historiques, politiques, scolaires, culturels et linguistiques) sont assimiles puis (re)traduits et exprimes par les individus. En nous aidant de plusieurs méthodes analytiques (analyses de discours, sociolinguistique interactionnelle, etc. ) Et en corrélant à la fois les critères objectifs et subjectifs, on observe différentes formes de survivance de la minorité franco- manitobaine, de la plus visible au sentiment linguistique le plus intime, caractéristiques d'identités en balancement. Par ailleurs, et malgré une politique linguistique canadienne revalorisant le statut du français, on constate souvent que les locuteurs franco-manitobains souffrent d'une diglossie anglais/français et d'une insécurité linguistique qui pèsent fortement sur leurs comportements langagiers et déteignent sur leur francité. Cet état de faits provoque parfois des conflits linguistiques - entre le même et l'autre, entre francophones et vis-vis des autres minorités - générant une schizoglossie voire même une assimilation et influe sur leurs performances langagières (réduction stylistique, surutilisation de variantes due au contact avec l'anglais, etc. ). A l'interface de cet intersecté empreint d'un mélange de deux langues en contact, on peut encore observer dans le parler franco-manitobain le maintien de dialectes français et franco-canadiens tels que le patois jurassien transplante il y a un siècle et le métis (pidgin franco cri (langue amérindienne)), véritables "lieux de mémoire" et de métissage d'identités franco-manitobaines en devenir.

Full textAbstract:
Cette thèse étudie la population du Manitoba depuis l'arrivée des premiers européens en 1612. La première partie concerne la mise en place du peuplement, qui s'organise autour de l'exploration du territoire et de l'exploitation des ressources, et qui se modifie avec la fondation de la première colonie agricole en 1812. Les changements politiques et le chemin de fer contribuent à l'intensification du peuplement et a son expansion. La deuxième partie concerne l'urbanisation du territoire. Pendant longtemps, le Manitoba est demeure rural ; son économie reposait sur l'agriculture. Avec le rail, une agriculture qui se commercialise, l'industrialisation et la croissance de la population, se développe un réseau de centres urbains, avant tout des centres de services pour les fermiers. Par sa situation privilégiée et son rôle dans l'ouest canadien, Winnipeg devient rapidement la principale ville. Au XIXe siècle, l'économie est largement dominée par les activités primaires. Au XXe siècle, les activités se diversifient et se multiplient; une société moderne, urbaine et industrielle, remplace peu à peu la société traditionnelle, rurale et agricole. La troisième partie analyse ces changements dans les activités économiques. Dans la quatrième partie sont étudiés les déplacements de population. Le Manitoba est une terre d'immigration ; il est aussi une terre d'émigration : le solde migratoire est le plus souvent négatif. Et à l'intérieur de ses frontières, il y a une mobilité importante, principalement vers Winnipeg. La cinquième partie concerne les caractéristiques démographiques : structure par âge et par sexe, fécondité, mortalité et accroissement naturel, qui sont perturbées par les migrations et les déplacements internes. La dernière partie fait le bilan de la croissance de la population depuis 1870. Aujourd'hui, le Manitoba compte un peu plus d'un million d'habitants, et Winnipeg en rassemble près de 60%

Full textAbstract:
In the northern Great Plains of Canada, there has been limited research conducted on reduced-tillage grain production systems managed organically. The objective was to adapt an organic rotational no-till system to the growing conditions of Manitoba, and to test its agronomic performance. A set of four experiments were conducted between 2010 and 2012, in Carman, MB, Canada. Mulches with hairy vetch (Vicia villosa Roth) showed the most promising results, producing the highest mulch biomass and organic no-till spring wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) yield. Organic flax (Linum usitatissimum L.) yield was significantly higher in no-till than in the two tillage treatments. Reduced content of soil nitrate-N and perennial weeds limited crop productivity after 4 yr under organic continuous no-till. In conclusion, the successful adaptation of the organic rotational no-till system to the growing conditions of Manitoba eliminated the need for tillage for a period of 1.5 to 2 yr.

Full textAbstract:
This study examines the relationship between nutrient additions and algae and invertebrate productivity in a nutrient-poor wetland of the Interlake Region of Manitoba, Canada. Alfalfa hay was added to experimental enclosures in May 1992. Alfalfa additions were made in unprocessed and ground forms and consisted of three treatments: ground low, whole low, and whole high. Dissolved oxygen, surface water nutrients, algae standing crop, and invertebrate production were monitored at open marsh sites and in treatment and control enclosures during 1992 and 1993. Stable $ sp{13}$C, $ sp{15}$N and $ sp{34}$S isotope ratios were determined for the alfalfa additions, and for surface water, algae, macrophytes, sediments and invertebrates.In general, the effects of nutrient additions were confined to 1992. Treatment enclosure dissolved oxygen levels decreased immediately following fertilization, recovering in the low treatments by early June. Low oxygen conditions persisted in whole high enclosures throughout most of 1992. Dissolved and suspended nutrient concentrations, and phytoplankton chlorophyll a increased but, with the exception of dissolved N, were soon lost from the water column. Treatment enclosure epiphytic algae increased while epipelon did not respond to fertilization. The primary effect of fertilization on invertebrate production was an increase in treatment enclosure chironomid larvae during 1992. As with productivity measures, stable isotope ratio values suggested a temporary presence of alfalfa nutrients in the enclosed food webs. Only the isotope ratios of metaphytic algae and snails collected during August 1992 indicated an incorporation of alfalfa nutrients.

Full textAbstract:
Histories give little attention to language dominance in school and community -- to the fact that the past one-hundred years of "One People, One Language, One School" attitudes, policies, and goals in Anglo-American schools and communities have brought with them the demise of Native-American languages, the disappearance of linguistic differences due to immigrant origin, the disvalue or stereotype of linguistic patterns derived from regional and ethnic variation, and the insistence on English as a mark of linguistic and intellectual virtue. Telling Stories (0ut of School) of Mother Tongue, God's Tongue, and the Queen's Tongue: An Ethnography in Canada gives attention to one such history. Told in Mennonite perspective and framed in Manitoba schools between 1890 and 1990, Telling Stories (Out of School) begins with tales of English-speaking Canadian insistence on and German-speaking Mennonite resistance to English-only language education policies in public and private schools serving a Mennonite speech community in southern Manitoba. The research problem links itself historically to a series of language education acts passed by the Manitoba Legislature, adjudicated by the Manitoba Attorney General, the Canadian Supreme Court, and the British Privy Council, and enforced by the Manitoba Department of Education -- all between 1890 and 1920. These English-only policies, deemed an expedient response to the question of how to unify English Canadians, French-Canadians, Aboriginals, and immigrants, abrogated the language education rights of all linguistic minorities. English prevailed in Manitoba schools until the 1960s. After the mid-1960s, though, the Canadian Parliament in concert with the Manitoba Legislature, the Manitoba Department of Education, and local public school districts re-affirmed Canada's English-French legacy as well as its multilingual, multicultural heritage with yet another series of language and language education acts -- the Canadian Official Languages Act of 1969, the Canadian Constitution Act of 1982, and the Canadian Multicultural Act of 1988. Today, the Canadian "Cultural Mosaic," or "Multiculturalism within a Bilingual Framework," dispels the "Melting Pot" myth borrowed from the United States at the turn of the century. And, the 1990 right to "language education choice" in Manitoba's system of public schools denies the 1890 rule of "One People, One Language, One School." To trace historical and recent developments in a Mennonite speech community associated with these policies, and subsequently with the contact of English, High German, and Low German” outside the classroom," the ethnographer -- an insider-outsider -- synthesizes the Hymes-type work in ethnographies of speaking and the Milroy-type work in language and social networks to examine the Ferguson-coined phenomenon of diglossia and the Fishman-extended relationship between societal diglossia and individual Bilingualism. Interviews with fifty-seven speakers, treated as a sequence of ethno-acts and ethno-events, are guided by the general question of sociolinguistic research -- who uses what language with whom, when, where, and why? Using Hymes mnemonic code of SPEAKING leads to the description of a shared history and a shared way of speaking as well as to insights into linguistic continuity, change, and compartmentalization. Telling Stories (Out of School) ends; with tales of an ethnic revival in Mennonite schools and community today -- with new voices speaking Low German High German, and English. While the present ethnography of a Mennonite speech community in Canada, framed in Manitoba schools between 1890 and 1990, should be regarded as impressionistic and preliminary, the fact remains -- language dominance does do something to the life of language in a community as does language education policy that attempts to "start where the child is ... linguisticallly."

Ancrée dans les méthodes de la sociolinguistique critique, cette thèse fait état des questions de légitimité, d’inclusion et d’exclusion, d’ancrage et de mobilité au sein de la collectivité francophone de la province du Manitoba, une minorité linguistique de langue officielle au Canada. Par l’entremise d’un travail de terrain ethnographique et d’entretiens semi-dirigées, cette étude cherche à sonder les questions de la redéfinition de la francité manitobaine, la reproduction des frontières de différenciation du groupe depuis les années 1960. Cette thèse se penche également sur la formation d’une élite en émergence au Manitoba français durant les années 1960 et le phénomène de migration et de mobilité d’une partie de ce groupe. En posant d’emblée une question importante, ‘Qui décide pour qui’, cette thèse se propose de naviguer à travers les questions légitimité sociale, linguistique et identitaire au Manitoba depuis les années 1960This research discusses the legitimizing forces that comprise what it means to be francophone in French speaking parts of Manitoba, an official language minority group in Canada. The researcher has through the lens of critical sociolinguistic analysis and ethnographic fieldwork, used participant observation, open ended interviews and discourse analysis to uncover themes of legitimacy, belonging and elite-building in 1960s Franco-Manitoba and how these themes resonate today. The research attempts to answer the conundrum, “who decides for whom” in matters of the right to francophone recognition. The current issues of migration and the dynamic tension between anchoring of the perceived centre and an ever-shifting periphery of linguistic and “ethnic” boundaries underscore the research

Full textAbstract:
Eighteen stands of bur oak (Quercus macrocarpa Michx.) and trembling aspen (Populus tremuloides Michx.) were sampled and analyzed using dendrochronological methods to study the potential effects on tree growth of emissions from a 132 MW coal-fired generating station. Sixteen stands were sampled within a 16-km radius of the station, and two control stands were sampled outside of the range of influence, at distances . 40 km. All stands showed similar radial growth patterns from 1960-2001, regardless of distance from or direction relative to the generating station, and a number of stands, including the controls, had below average growth after 1970. Both species were significantly affected by climatic factors, showing decreased radial growth with increasing June temperature. The species differed in their growth responses to spring precipitation and temperature in the previous October. One bur oak site displayed marked radial growth decline beginning in the mid-1970s, strongly pronounced following 1977. This decline does not appear to be related to emissions from the station, but is suspected to be a result of poor site conditions (shallow soil developed over calcareous till), confounded by a change in drainage (a road was built adjacent to the stand in 1977, perpendicular to the direction of drainage). The below average growth seen in 1970-2001 across most stands is likely attributable to stand dynamics and age effects.

Full textAbstract:
A previous population-based study of survival in Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia (CLL) patients in the province of Manitoba demonstrated a lower five-year relative survival among CLL patients compared with the age- and gender-adjusted general population. This decreased relative survival was most pronounced among elderly male CLL patients.
In this study, we have demonstrated that the reduced five-year relative survival observed in CLL patients compared to the general population of Manitoba may partially be attributed to increased risk of second cancers and non-referral to specialized CLL clinics.
The increased risk of second cancers in CLL patients compared to Follicular Lymphoma (FL), a similar indolent B cell malignancy, was only observed after CLL diagnosis indicating that a CLL-specific factor may be responsible for the increased risk of second cancers in these patients. The risk of second cancers is independent of treatment and surveillance bias but is further increased with chemotherapy.
A superior outcome in CLL patients who have been referred to the CancerCare Manitoba (CCMB) specialized CLL clinic was observed that was independent of age, gender, treatment and history of previous cancers. This superior outcome was most pronounced in the elderly CLL patients.
We propose that CLL patients should be referred to CLL-specific hematologists and, where not possible, that guidelines created by such experts be followed. Appropriate screening for second cancers should be performed during routine follow up of CLL patients.

Full textAbstract:
Permafrost is a strongly controlling factor on Arctic hydrology due to its effect on ground permeability, and thus surface and ground water flow paths. As wildfires are increasing in occurrence and magnitude in permafrost regions, they may alter the hydrological regime via permafrost thaw and degradation that increases ground permeability. Thus, it is hypothesized that in permafrost regions catchments exposed to severe wildfire burn may display a river discharge behavior different to that of unburned catchments, with reduced maximum and increased minimum flows corresponding to higher infiltration of precipitation and extended sub-surface flow paths. This study compares the seasonality and magnitude of runoff in severely burned (Odei River) and unburned (Taylor River) catchments in the sporadic permafrost region in the Canadian Shield Taiga. The investigated time span consists of 25 full calendar years with complete daily and monthly river discharge data between 1980 and 2016. They are used in conjunction with burned area data, climate data and landcover data to investigate patterns in hydrology behavior. An emerging trend is a sharply declining maximum flow and increasing minimum flow relative to precipitation in the burned catchment, indicating an accelerated increase in infiltration and buffer capacity of the soil relative to the unburned catchment. Over the entire period the apparent annual catchment storage change is decreasing in both catchments, but at a 115% faster rate in the burned catchment despite being exposed to ~1.5 C lower mean annual temperature, a factor that likely increases the rate of climate-driven aggradation of permafrost in the contrasting unburned catchment. The discrepancy found in catchment streamflow regime between the burned and unburned catchment and its alignment with the suggested permafrost disturbance effects from previous studies suggest that streamflow may serve as a useful and resource efficient indicator of wildfire-driven permafrost degradation.

Full textAbstract:
The place of birth for First Nations is a contested issue in Canada today. For the past 30 years, the practice of removing women from communities to birth in urban centre hospitals, called maternal evacuation, has been a part of the dialogue between First Nation organisations, the Canadian state, policy makers, and Academics. Concurrent to the practice of evacuation, there is a movement to repatriate birth to First Nations through Aboriginal midwifery. This multi-sited ethnography is based on 15 months of fieldwork in Manitoba, Canada and follows the practice of evacuation and the establishment of an Aboriginal midwifery practice in one northern First Nation community. The ethnography reveals that both evacuation and returning birth is a complex, multi-layered negotiation of risk between various actors. From women and their families, doctors and nurses, midwives and other health professionals: the management of risk is at the forefront of this discussion. This study takes into account how risk is imagined, created and targeted in the practice of maternity care for First Nations in Manitoba. The concept of risk and risk management takes on multiple forms as the practice of evacuation moves from the community to the urban centre, from federal land to provincial land, from the hospital to the board room. Through participation observation in the places of birth and interviews with the range of actors involved in maternity care for First Nations, this ethnography reveals the messiness of the concept of risk, and identifies where these actors collude and conflict on the topic of evacuation and repatriation. The study also traces how the state has co-opted the language of risk on all sides of this debate and how the bodies of the First Nations mother and midwife becomes sites in which these contestations over risk, responsibility, knowledge and safety occur.

Full textAbstract:
The thesis presents a model of how inner city citizens can effectively engage in the political process to achieve their goals. It is based on two case studies, participant observation, and action research with inner city citizen groups in Winnipeg, Manitoba, Canada, between 1978 and 1988. A review of the literature on theories of the state, strategy formation and execution, and methods of collective action, is synthesized into a systemic framework of questions to apply to the case studies. These questions are then employed to guide the case study analysis that draws out conclusions and lessons for citizen action. This is placed in the context of the development of the Canadian State. Then the thesis brings the research experience, literature review and case study analysis together into a model for civic engagement by inner city citizen groups. The model has four key components: assessing opportunities and constraints, framing issues and actors, mobilizing opportunity structures, organizations, policy communities and social networks; and taking collective action. Each is elaborated with action guidelines and caveats on the limitations of this approach.

Le tantale (Ta) est un métal rare essentiel de l'industrie high-tech, que l'on extrait principalement des pegmatites à éléments rares.

Le but de ma thèse est de comprendre les minéralisations en Ta dans la pegmatite géante de Tanco (Canada), l'un des trois plus gros gisements de Ta au monde. Cette pegmatite est extrêmement complexe pétrogénétiquement et minéralogiquement, et montre divers styles de minéralisations en Ta. L'étude de deux de ces styles, l'un associé aux zones magmatiques précoces de la pegmatite, l'autre, aux zones centrales altérées par des processus plus tardifs, m'a permis d'évaluer la contribution des processus magmatiques et métasomatiques dans la minéralisation, et d'établir un modèle métallogénique pour le Ta à Tanco.

Full textAbstract:
Lygus lineolaris (Palisot de Beauvois), L. elisus (Van Duzee), L. borealis (Knight) and Adelphocoris lineolatus (Goeze) were the major species of plant bugs present in commercial field bean and soybean fields in 2008–2010. Lygus lineolaris comprised 78–95% of the mirid adults and <10% were A. lineolatus. Lygus lineolaris reproduced in field beans and completed a single generation. In field beans, adults entered the crop in late July, corresponding to growth stages from late vegetative to pod initiation, and females laid eggs in the crop. Nymphs hatched and developed and were most numerous at the seed development and seed filling stage. At seed maturity, late instar nymphs and adults were present. In soybeans, L. lineolaris reproduced but nymphs had poorer survival than in field beans. Late in the season, adult numbers greatly increased in field beans and soybeans, partly due to immigration of adult Lygus bugs from early‐maturing crops. Field beans and soybeans appeared to be a transient host for A. lineolatus. There were no effects on yield quality or quantity associated with the numbers of plant bugs seen in field surveys.
In laboratory and field cages, the type of injury from L. lineolaris feeding differed among plant growth stages but not between nymphs and adults, although nymphs generally were more injurious. At flowering to pod initiation, abortion of buds, flowers or pods was the most common response to feeding injury; pod abortion did not occur when injury occurred at later growth stages. Sometimes abortions resulted in reduced yield quantity, but sometimes plants compensated for the injury. No loss of seed quality occurred from feeding at this stage. During seed development and filling, feeding injury most frequently affected the vascular supply to filling seeds, resulting in shriveled seeds and pods at harvest, and consequent reduced total harvested seed weight. At seed maturity, direct seed injury, involving penetration of the testa and loss of cotyledon tissue, was the most frequent injury and resulted in pits in the seed coat at harvest. There was no loss in yield quantity when feeding occurred at seed maturity, but seed pitting reduced yield quality.May 2016

Full textAbstract:
Cette étude qualitative phénoménologique décrit l’expérience vécue et les besoins relatifs à l'intégration socioéconomique des six aînés immigrants d’origine africaine (55 ans et plus) vivant au Manitoba depuis 5 à 10 ans. Le bien-être subjectif, tel que definit par la perception des immigrés pour leur qualité de vie, leur satisfaction avec la vie et leur état émotionnel, ont servi comme un indicateur général de l'intégration socioéconomique. La littérature a démontré que les personnes âgées immigrantes éprouvaient des problèmes particuliers dans leur intégration socioéconomique. Elle rapporte aussi des disproportions significatives entre les besoins des personnes âgées immigrantes et les services qu’elles reçoivent. En utilisant une combinaison de l'approche théorique des déterminants sociaux de la santé et de la théorie de l'inclusion socioéconomique comme cadre conceptuel, cette étude qualitative analyse comment l'intégration socioéconomique inadéquate et les politiques de retraite d'État imposent à cette catégorie d'immigrants de vivre dans la pauvreté, ce qui affecte leur qualite de vie. Afin de mettre en évidence les particularités spécifiques des besoins des PAIA, nous avons cerné leur expérience, leurs préoccupations, leurs attentes et leur niveau de satisfaction en rapport avec les services d’intégration socioéconomique qui leur sont offerts. Les résultats de cette étude indiquent que ces immigrés sont impuissants et sont opprimés dans presque chaque interaction qu'ils ont au sein de la sphère publique ou le marché du travail et la sphère privée tels que les modes de vie. Ces résultats montrent aussi que la situation du statut socioéconomique se répercute et influence les autres déterminants de la santé. Par conséquent, leur pauvreté est bien au-delà de leur contrôle personnel. Elle est fortement liée à l'injustice de la structure sociale fondée sur la classe, la race, le statut d'immigrant, l’âge et les politiques de l'État. Mots clés : intégration socioéconomique, qualité de vie, statut socioéconomique, personnes âgées immigrantes, bien-être subjectif, pauvreté des immigrants.This study explores and describes the lived experience and the needs relating to the socioeconomic integration of the six elderly immigrants of African origin (55 years old and over) living in Manitoba since 5 to 10 years. The subjective well-being as measured by the immigrants’ perception of the quality of life, satisfaction with life and emotional state, served as a general indicator of the socioeconomic integration. The litterature has demontrated that the eldely immigrants are experiencing particular problems during their socioeconomic integration.It also reported significant disproportion between the needs of the eldrly immigrants and the services they receive. Using a combination of the theory of socioeconomic inclusion and the theoretical approach of the social determinants of health as the framework, this study analyzes how the inadequate socioeconomic integration and the state’s pension policies impose this category of immigrants to live in poverty, that affects their quality of life. Finally to highlight the specific features of the needs of the africans immigrants seniors, we identified their experience, their concerns, their expectations and their level of satisfaction in relation to socioeconomic integration services that are available to them. The findings of this study indicate that these immigrants are powerless and are oppressed in almost every interaction that they have within the public sphere, the labour market and the private sphere such as living conditions. These results also show that the situation of the socioeconomic status is reflected and influence on the other determinants of health. Therefore, their poverty is far beyond their personal control. It is strongly associated with social structure injustice based on class, race, immigrant status, age, and state policies. Key words: socioeconomic integration, quality of life, socioeconomic status, lifestyle, elderly immigrant, subjective well-being, immigrants’ poverty.

Full textAbstract:
We examined the radial growth - climate association of a disjunct population of white spruce (Picea glauca (Moench) Voss) at its southern limit of distribution. Forty-four white spruce tree islands were sampled over four mixed-grass prairie preserves in the Spruce Woods Provincial Park located in the forestprairie boundary of southwestern Manitoba. Reduced radial growth occurred during the 1910s, 1930s, early 1960s, and the late 1970s to the early 1980s and corresponded to periods of drought on the Canadian prairies, and the Great Plains of the United States. Correlation and response function coefficients indicated that conditions in the summer and fall of the previous year (t-1), and the summer of the current year (t) strongly influenced white spruce growth. Growth was positively correlated with August-September (t-1) and May-June-July (t) precipitation and moisture index (precipitation minus potential evapotranspiration). Radial growth was positively associated with June-July-August (t) river discharge. Growth was most correlated with maximum and mean temperature compared with minimum temperature. Precipitation and maximum temperature accounted for the greatest variation in radial growth (61%). The results suggest that white spruce growth is sensitive to climatic fluctuations because growth is restricted by moisture deficiency exacerbated by temperature-induced drought stress.

Full textAbstract:
Agriculture and urban development has reduced tallgrass prairie to less than 1% of its original land cover in southern Manitoba, Canada. Although much of the remaining tallgrass prairie in Manitoba is protected within a single Preserve, it continues to be degraded by the invasion of exotic and woody species, fire suppression, and overgrazing. My overall thesis objective was to assess the role of rehabilitation in tallgrass prairie restoration and more specifically to examine the relative effects of disturbance, soil fertility, and seeding. Two field studies were conducted within the St. Charles Rifle Range (SCRR) and Manitoba Tall Grass Prairie Preserve (MTGPP) to assess these objectives. The impacts of burn-season were examined on a high quality tallgrass prairie located within the SCRR. This four-year study found burn-season to have a substantial impact on diversity and species composition. Fall-burn had the most desirable effect, increasing native graminoid and forb diversity, regardless of time-of-flowering. Summer-burn increased both native and exotic graminoid cover. Spring-burn had relatively no effect on species composition and was characterized by woody species. All burn-seasons, except fall-burn, became increasingly similar in species composition to the control over time. Spring-, summer-, and fall-burns had varied but desirable effects on diversity and species composition. In 1999, a long-term experiment was initiated within the MTGPP to assess the role of disturbance (glyphosate, mowing, and fire), soil fertility (ammonium nitrate), and interseeding in rehabilitating degraded tallgrass prairie. Glyphosate had the greatest impact on diversity and species composition. Exotic and weedy native species increased and desirable native species (e.g. Andropogon gerardu) were adversely affected in glyphosate-treated plots. Mowing and fire had less of an effect, in large part because of long-term haying on this site. Fertilizer increased native forbs and graminoids, whereas exotic graminoids decreased. Interseeding with native tallgrass prairie species increased native graminoids and decreased exotic graminoids, but had no effect on forbs. Species composition of glyphosate-treated plots became more similar to the unsprayed and control plots over time, whereas effects of fertilizer and other disturbance factors showed little change. Rehabilitation of tallgrass prairie shows great potential for southern Manitoba. Disturbance and fertilization can have desirable effects, but only when seedbank, above ground vegetation, and site-specific constraints have been identified. Effective techniques in rehabilitation are required if the degradation of remnant and restored tallgrass prairie is to be mitigated.

Full textAbstract:
Overweight/overdimension (OW/OD) trucking is an important and growing segment of the trucking industry, especially in Western Canada. However, some provincial and municipal policies governing OW/OD trucking are not rational or consistent, due in part ot the lack of available information. This thesis consolidates existing Western Canadian OW/OD policy information and presents new information on the extent and characteristics of OW/OD trucking in order to assist OW/OD policy makers in making better policy decisions. The new information is generated from the Manitoba Highways truck weight survey data base and by sampling internal government files. In addition, a comparative engineering and administrative evaluation of selected Western Canadian OW/OD policies is made, with specific recommendations for improvement to Manitoba OW/OD policy.

Full textAbstract:
Brochet is a remote, off-grid community located in Northern Manitoba, Canada. The existing diesel generating system is characterized by high economic and environmental costs. As the existing diesel generators are nearing the end of their operational lifespan, this study uses the HOMER model to determine an optimum electricity system design at Brochet that has high electrical reliability, least cost, and low emissions. Three potential power generation options were considered and evaluated, namely: 1) only diesel, 2) only wind, 3) a mix of both. The wind-diesel hybrid system performed best for all the evaluation criteria. While maintaining high reliability, this hybrid system design resulted in 19 % reduction in electricity cost, and 30 % reduction of CO2 when compared to the existing electricity system at Brochet. Thus, this study concludes that the wind-diesel hybrid system is the optimum electricity system design for Brochet and proposes this system replace the existing system.

Full textAbstract:
This thesis draws on Esping-Andersen’s welfare regimes typology while incorporating new theoretical insights that extend its application to intra-provincial social policy analyses in Canada. We examine the jurisdictions of Québec, Alberta, and Manitoba across the domain of housing policy and attempt to ‘locate’ each province within the typology and account for the provincial variations observed. Québec was expected to approximate a ‘social-democratic’ model and Alberta was expected to approximate an ‘ultra-liberal’ approach. The expected ‘location’ of Manitoba was less certain but the longstanding social democratic provincial government (NDP) suggested that its approach might be closer to that in Quebec. Housing policy measures were selected on the basis of their capacity to support the process of de-commodification and evaluated on their eligibility criteria and the level of benefits provided. Housing policy measures in Québec, Alberta, and Manitoba generally ‘fit’ within their expected ‘locations’. However, some unexpected and contradictory findings in the areas of eligibility criteria and the level of benefit provided were also found.

Full textAbstract:
The complex physiography and disturbance history of Riding Mountain National Park have resulted in a complex assemblage of aspen parkland, eastern deciduous and boreal forest communities on the landscape. Few studies have examined forest composition, structure and dynamics in the eastern extension of the mixedwood forest region. This study uses detailed vegetation, edaphic and environmental data collected from 202-100 m2 forest plots distributed throughout the Park to elucidate landscape-level trends in forest structure and dynamics. Stands were first classified into 8 dominant stand types, and described in terms of their biotic and abiotic characteristics. Factors affecting patterns of understory tree regeneration and the timing of their recruitment were examined on the landscape, and growth of understory green ash (Fraxinus pennsylvanica Marsh.) and white spruce (Picea glauca (Moench) Voss) were analyzed in different habitats to infer future changes in stand composition. Successional trajectories were created for each of the 8 stand types using a static size-class analysis of tree species, and a comprehensive conceptual model of stand dynamics was created. Sections of this thesis have previously been published in Caners and Kenkel (1998). Results indicate that successional trajectories for stand types in the Park do not converge towards a single self-perpetuating 'climax' community. Instead, vectors diverge, converge and remain cyclical, with multiple potential pathways recognized for each stand type. This study demonstrates that species assemblages, and the propensity for change, are governed by the cumulative and synergistic effects of climate, topography, disturbance frequency, size and intensity, edaphic conditions and the proximity of parental seed sources. These factors have resulted in a patchwork mosaic of forest stands on the landscape of varying structure, composition and seral stage. Overall, results are in general agreement with studies from central and eastern regions of the boreal forest. Post-fire stands are dominated by pioneering hardwoods such as aspen, balsam poplar and paper birch. Mid-succession stands show an increasingly greater proportion of white spruce in the canopy, whereas late-succession stands are dominated by white spruce and balsam fir and are driven by gap dynamic processes. The oldest stands are commonly open and shrub-dominated, especially by beaked hazelnut and mountain maple. In areas of dense shrub cover and/or areas without a proximate seed source, regeneration of tree species is dramatically reduced. Ungulate herbivores selectively browse trees and shrubs, impacting the long-terms dynamics of forest systems.

Full textAbstract:
This thesis addresses food insecurity from an Indigenous fisheries lens and presents a conceptual model by integrating three different but inter-related domains (ecological, cultural, and business) that impact Indigenous food security. Under the broader umbrella of fisheries and food security, the thesis addresses four objectives: (i) to investigate the co-existence of commercial and subsistence fisheries, (ii) to assess food security among commercial and subsistence fishing households, (iii) to explore the meaning of traditional food by engaging Indigenous youth with an objective to revitalize culture, and (iv) to examine the role of the fisherman’s co-operative as a social enterprise to address community economic development. The study was conducted over a period of 14 months (from September 2013 to December 2014) in Norway House Cree Nation, northern Manitoba, Canada.
Community members are engaged in both subsistence and commercial fishing. The two kinds of fisheries co-exist, and potential problems of overlap are handled by temporal separation; spatial separation; formal mechanism of monitoring of net ownership; and informal communication for conflict resolution consistent with Cree values. The study found that extensive sharing of fish and other traditional foods by commercial fishers reached almost half of the total population in the community and contributed to improving food security. I used a participatory research approach to engage Indigenous youth to explore the meaning of traditional food. Participants produced a collaborative artwork on the theme of “what traditional food means to you?” This art work functioned as a boundary object, initiating discussion about food security planning in the community. Norway House Fisherman’s Co-op operates as a social enterprise mainly because of fish sharing and its role in business diversification for community economic development. The Chief and Band Council requested an exploration of ways to add value to their existing commercial fisheries. Based on the findings, further development can rely on: (i) better use of existing fish resources, such as the by-catch, (ii) fishing related economic development, such as value-added fish products, and (iii) use of options regarding regulatory bodies, such as eco-certification.February 2017

The full responsibility for protecting the nation’s cultural heritage has been left to individual provinces and a comparative study of policy and legislation across Canada is undertaken. The archaeological excavation at the site of the Canadian Museum for Human Rights has proven to be one of the most significant in the province of Manitoba and serves as the case study for this research. All of this comparative research aspires toward a single goal; the creation of a best practices model broadly applicable to the provinces of Canada, which aims to provide a basis for the creation of federal heritage policy and legislation in meaningful consultation with Indigenous communities.February 2017

This research examines multi-generational households and patterns of co-residence among Chinese immigrant households in Winnipeg following the federal government’s reforms of the Parent Grandparent Program in 2014. These phenomena are examined within the conceptual frameworks of familial obligations and social capital. The study interviewed 29 mainland Chinese immigrants living in Winnipeg. The study found that while social capital is relevant to understanding the flow of favours across generations, the flow of favours between generations is not necessarily reciprocal, but instead flows downward to the youngest generation. The study found the enormous scale of social, political and economic transformation in mainland China over the past half century have produced different forms of familial obligations and largely eliminated the practice of co-residence. Reforms to the PGP had the most impact on young families that desired to sponsor their parents and in-laws over a relatively short period of time.May 2017

Cette analyse éclaire les approches différentes que prennent les écrivains face à l’écriture. Ceux-ci se rangent soit du côté de la tradition, de l’histoire nationale et de la mémoire, soit du côté du moderne, du nouveau et du rejet du passé. En s’appuyant sur les théories d’Anne-Marie Thiesse, de François Paré et d’Éric Méchoulan, cette étude remarque que les tendances littéraires se manifestent à travers l’écriture et la réécriture de l’H/histoire, l’intertextualité, la langue et l’inclusion (ou non) des référents culturels et mémoriels.
